Metal-enclosed AC switchgear for rated voltages > 1 kV up to including 52 kV: IEC 62271-200

Useandhandlingofsulphurhexafluoride(SF6) in high-voltage switchgear: IEC 62271-303

The locally applicable accident prevention, operating and work instructions must be complied with.

Installation: IEC 61936-1/EN 61936-11

Operation of electrical equipment: EN 50110-11

1 The national standards applicable in the country where the equipment is to be installed must be complied with.

Before performing work on the panels, it is essential that you comply with the follow-ing instructions:

Danger!Risk of fatalities due to high voltage. Isolation from high voltage and earthing must always be ensured before performing assembly or maintenance work.

Danger!Risk of fatalities due to supply voltage. Isolation from supply voltage must always be ensured before performing assembly or maintenance work.

Warning!Risk of injury due to movable parts in mechanical drives. For maintenance work,

isolate the system from the supply voltage release the circuit-breaker’s energy storing device by OFF-

ON-OFF operation and make-proof earthing switches by the appropriate ON-operation.

Warning!After removing covers from a switchgear unit, operator safety may be reduced regarding internal arcs unless the switchgear is isolated from the power supply. Optimum operator safety is only ensured if the switchgear is completely disconnected from the power supply and grounded during assembly.

For the case of an internal fault, the GHA switchgear features pressure relief ports which prevent the panels and the switchgear from bursting.This Technical Manual does not include information regarding the safety of buildings in case of internal faults (pressure load of the switchgear room and necessary pres-sure relief ports). Pressure calculations for switchgear rooms incl. recommendations regarding pressure relief ports can be provided on request against a fee. For further details, please contact the manufacturer.Incaseoffireorofinternalfaults,toxicandcausticdecompositionproductsmaybeproduced.

4.1 Safety provisions

The switchgear panels may only be installed and assembled by the manufacturer’s stafforbypersonswhohavebeencertifiedforthiswork.The GHA series switchgear panels are delivered with the circuit-breaker set to “OFF”, the energy storing device released and the disconnector and earthing switch set to “OFF”.

Warning!Risk of injury due to movable parts in the mechanical drive. The energy storing device of the circuit-breakers and the earthing switches must not be charged during assembly.

Warning!Risk of accidents! Watch out for floor openings in the switchgear room.

Danger!Danger due to insufficient dielectric strength of high-voltage con-nections in case of assembly under aggravated ambient condi-tions. During assembly of the busbar link and the high-voltage connections, it is essential to avoid condensation, dirt and dust deposits. At the time of installation, the ambient temperature must amount to ≥ 10 °C.

Warning!The top sides of the panels are not meant to be walked on. Per-sons may fall through them, get injured or may damage the panel. When work has to be performed on the panel top - e.g. assembly of deflectors, fans or pressure relief ducts - temporarily position a solid mounting rack to step on.

Warning!Risk of injury due to non-respect of the safety provisions in Chap-ter 1, on page 7.

4.2 Important instructions for assembly

Notice: Switchgear with pressure relief duct (see Chapter 8, as of page

67): The pressure relief duct must be mounted before the panel is positioned on the base frame.

Condensation, dirt and dust should be avoided during assembly on all accounts, in order to prevent damage to the panels.

For assembly, observe the assembly drawings supplied with the equipment. Read them before you commence assembly work. The drawing numbers are specified in this manual under the de-scription of the assembly work in question.

For all screw connections, refer to the tightening torques specified in the Annex.

The transport securing device on the busbars must not be re-moved before assembly of the busbar link acc. to Chapter 4.7 on page 32.

4.3 Requirements regarding the switchgear room

Notice:Before installing the switchgear panels, make sure that the switchgear room is checked according to the customer-specific switchgear docu-mentation.

Observe the minimum distance between the switchgear and the wall of the building.

The load-bearing capacity of the fastening areas must correspond to the weight of the switchgear (perform a stress analysis of the building).

Check base frame for dimensions and tolerances in position. Checkpositionofflooropeningsforhigh-voltageandlow-voltagecables.

Before the switchgear is positioned at its site of installation, check that the base frame dimensions are precisely correct.

– Flatness: ±1 mm/meter – Straightness: ±1 mm/meter – Parallelism: ±1 mm/meter – Height difference over the entire length of the switchgear: ±2 mm

11 Optional high-voltage test on commissioning

11.1 Power frequency withstand test of the busbar

A power frequency test of the busbar can be performed optionally. The test voltage is supplied via the high-voltage terminal of a panel. To this effect, a test unit and test cables are required, which are not included in the scope of supplies.

Warning!Comply with the safety provisions in Chapter 1, page 7.

Danger!No high-voltage cables must be connected in the incoming feeder panel for the voltage test and on the busbar. All high-voltage terminals must be closed surge-proof during the test phase. Earth the residual phases using commercially available earthing devices.

Notice:All the switching operations mentioned in this context must be per-formed in accordance with the applicable Operating Manual GHA.

1. All panels must be isolated from the power supply, and earthed.2. Incoming feeder panel for voltage test:

– Remove the cable compartment cover. – Test phase: Mount test cable to the high-voltage terminal (see Fig. 94).

11.2 Cable testing

Cable tests with the cables connected can be performed for outer cone-type as well as for inner cone-type cable connections for each phase.

The test sockets for inner cones are accessible from the panel front after re-moval of the cable compartment cover (Fig. 95, page 85).

The busbar can be operated with rated voltage during cable tests in the outgo-ing feeder (see nameplate).

For cable testing, a test unit and a test adapter are required, which are not included in the scope of supplies.

Danger!Risk of fatalities due to high voltage. Before the cable test, the outgoing feeder cable must be isolated from the power supply and earthed. The outgoing feeder cable of the remote station must also be isolated from the power supply.

Danger!Risk of fatalities due to supply voltage. Isolation from supply volt-age must be ensured.

Warning!Risk of injury due to movable parts in mechanical drives.

Release the circuit-breaker’s energy storing device by OFF-ON-OFF operation and make-proof earthing switches by the appropriate ON-operation.

Warning!After removing covers from a switchgear unit, operator safety may be reduced regarding internal arcs unless the switchgear is isolated from the power supply. Optimum operator safety is only ensured if the switchgear is completely disconnected from the power supply and grounded during assembly.

Notice: All the switching operations mentioned in this context must be per-

formed in accordance with the applicable Operating Manual GHA. The assembly, operating and testing instructions for cable fittings

and connectors and the test unit must be taken into consideration. Comply with the admissible limits (see Table). Other limits are

only admissible after having obtained the written approval of the manufacturer.
